In order to avoid any potential issues I removed the "even a little slightly problematic" modules from Cardinal temporarily, so any new patches done with it now are safe to use from now on (so no modules-were-removed surprises possible)

Meanwhile the core modules, due to VCV branding and CC-ND restriction, are being slowly replaced by Cardinal counterparts.
Still WIP and yeah they look boring, but should be good enough for a first release. Getting things moving is the first step.

VST3 handling in hosts continues to amaze me.

Seems FLStudio doesn't support VST3 plugins without custom GUI. The GUI ends up fully empty [pic1]

That arrow down is not to show/hide the GUI, but to access some options. some trickery then allows to change parameters on the sidebar panel. [pic2]

[pic3] shows how it is supposed to look like, using VST2 format.

Have we reach the point where nobody cares about plugins without GUIs, so much they wont even implement support for it? wow

On the topic of crypto and NFTs, "Folding Ideas" has a great and extensive video essay about it.

@unfa is that a hot take or a common opinion?
Temperature wise seems quite mild to me 🍵

On the topic, pretending to be a flat-earther is top internet shit-posting. People get all upset about it while one is obviously joking, minor the casual idiots that somehow actually believe it. Well at least one side is having fun.

Reminds me of those that say that Bielefeld is not an actual place that exists. Have you been there? Know anyone from there? Gotcha!

@codeberg@mastodon.technology @nund is there any difference between trusting 1 person vs trusting a company vs trusting a team?

Federation is how I would go about such things, not managing the project in one service vs another.

@codeberg@mastodon.technology @nund but that is just my point.
even with all this place, it is just words from you.
all doesnt matter when we cannot verify the server side.

@nund if I ever move away from github, it will be for a self-hosted instance, not to yet another CVS hub instance.

even if the base code that codeberg (or gitlab, or source hut, or any other like that) is opensource, there is no guarantee that the code you have access to matches the code that runs on the server.

we should not trust server code that we do not control ourselves.

once oauth or any other kind of standard for accounts is more popular, I will stop github and use only git.kx.studio

Caring about proper licensing is a pain sometimes.
But such is life if you want to get your stuff packaged in the most common Linux distros.

This is the situation on Cardinal so far:
github.com/DISTRHO/Cardinal/bl

The non-commercial clause of many artwork files is a problem for a few distros.
With that said, in due time I believe Cardinal should be at least in ArchLinux and Ubuntu multiverse repos.

Only 25 days till first release!

@gcrkrause @mray @unfa yes, damn unfa what are you doing!? thanks to you facebook (I mean meta) will live on for 10 more years, at the minimum! Shame shame

@mray @falktx I think I'll need to make a video I'll link to everyone telling me stuff like this.
TL;DR: locking myself in a libre echo chamber will help no one but the people who are already on the better side. We need to reach the rest and bring them over. Not isolate ourselves from them.

@mray If you keep bringing it up, I dont think you feel sorry at all.
So stop saying what you dont mean, thanks

@unfa when you spend some time reading ToS before using a service, you get the idea that this is quite common. And it is not just phones, smart speakers, online chat platforms, it is pretty much all closed-source commercial services.
To find something that does not listen is the exception, not the rule.

@unfa wasn't this already wildly known?
there have been so many articles about this over the years.

1 day late, but DPF-Plugins has its own release today too.
See kx.studio/News/?action=view&ur

Carla and Ildaeil still need a release, but the JACK stuff took a lot of time so these last ones are late. Still coming soon though.

@rghvdberg@sonomu.club no no, it is just that the meme is slight different every time haha

@rghvdberg@sonomu.club that looks different somehow... -_-

@Jayhosh@social.linux.pizza there are licenses for that though, if someone doesnt want companies to just use some code without giving anything back. it is one of the reasons (A)GPL exist
